Wow, the hits keep right on coming from Diamond Select Toys today! Earlier today I heard about the refresh of their sold-out and popular Marvel Select Arachne figure coming back to stores next year, but further news indicates that she won’t be coming alone! One of the more sought-after and expensive older Marvel Select action figures is coming back to stores in February 2014–the Marvel Select Ultimate Iron Man figure is now up for pre-order!

When I first heard about the Hot Toys Rose Hill Tony Stark figure a week or so ago–no lie–I thought it was a joke. No, seriously–I thought it was a joke. I thought someone had photoshopped some teaser photos of the existing Tony Stark Hot Toys figure wearing a cowboy hat, and was trying to pass it off as a real upcoming figure. I was mistaken.
Officially announced and coming in 2014–the Rose Hill Tony Stark Hot Toys Iron Man 3 sixth scale figure!

I am not exaggerating at all when I say that I get someone messaging me almost every single day asking me if I have any insider info on when and if Sideshow Collectibles will be selling the hotly-anticipated exclusive Hot Toys Midas Iron Man 1/6 figure. The answer is always the same, which is that I don’t have any insider info (ever). Luckily, that won’t be an issue anymore– the 1/6 Midas Iron Man Hot Toys Movie Masterpiece figure IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR ORDER! If you want him, go get him NOW–Sideshow has said quantities are highly limited and he will sell out quickly!

I saw reported sightings of the new set of exclusive Toys R Us Marvel Minimates Wave 17 for the first time this morning, and decided to make it my new quest to see the Minimates wave in person. But, well… It wasn’t much of a quest. I drove to one Toys R Us, walked down the action figure aisle, and all four two-packs of the TRU Marvel Minimates Series 17 figures were just sitting right out front on the pegs…

It’s been a good half of a year since 3A Toys shared a teaser photo of their first Marvel sixth scale figure entry, this week they finally deigned to give us a better look at the unpainted prototype of the upcoming 3A Toys Iron Man 1/6 figure!
The amount of Iron Man swag out there this year is totally unreal and off-the-charts, but I guarantee that 3AToys has designed an Iron Man figure like none that have come before it…

I’m starting to feel like I’m the bringer of all bad news and gloom these last couple days, but it looks like I’ve got a few more unfortunate tidings to convey.
After gaining some momentum and a lot of interest by their appearances at major conventions throughout the summer, Play Imaginative announced yesterday that their entire Iron Man Super Alloy figures line in both 1/4 and 1/12 scales will now be delayed until 2014…

LEGO Marvel fans were dumbfounded when the trio of LEGO Iron Man 3 sets were revealed. The major shocker wasn’t even that two of the three Iron Man LEGO sets didn’t occur in the movie at all (Iron Man vs. The Mandarin in a giant tank?! What exactly did Marvel tell LEGO was going to happen in this movie!?). No, what stunned LEGO Marvel collectors was that there wasn’t a LEGO Iron Patriot minifigure included in any of the sets! As it turned out, though, that was a marketing tactic to sell the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes video game–and it worked…

Something I have literally been looking forward to for months is the opportunity to see the Play Imaginative Iron Man Super Alloy figures in person. I’d seen online images of the figures earlier this year, but they didn’t seem like anything special or worth their hefty price tags. But then I heard the hosts of Marvelicious Toys podcast rave about the line in their Episode 92 SDCC 2013 coverage, and I knew had to see these for myself. Finally seeing the 1/12 Iron Man Movie figures like Iron Monger, Armored Whiplash and Disco Iron Man at NYCC 2013 this weekend, my heart rejoiced while my wallet cringed in agony…

Japanese company Kaiyodo’s name isn’t quite synonymous with “Marvel figures”, but that’s not to say that they haven’t produced their fair share of them as Revoltech figures. Of course, all but one of those Kaiyodo Revoltech Marvel figures have something in common: they’re all figures of various permutations of the Iron Man armor–and their next release will be no exception! Coming to America in November 2013, the all-new Iron Man 3 Revoltech Iron Man Mark 42 figure is now up for order!

I’ve been wondering since the summer when Amazon was going to get around to posting the pre-orders for their exclusive Hasbro Iron Man 3 Hall of Armor figures set. Well, it turns out that evidently they never put pre-orders up for their exclusive set because they weren’t going to have them.

Well, NECA may have just the thing to cure your Hot Toys Hulk’s blues–a new quarter-scale Avengers Iron Man Mark VII figure for Hulk to hang out with!
